Opis

One of the most interesting documents in the all too meagre archives of American hand weaving is a book of drawings by one John Landes, who appears to have been a professional weaver of the Revolutionary period. This remarkable old pattern book is one of the treasures of Frishmuth Collection in the Pennsylvania Museum, where many of the waeving fraternity have had the privilege of examining it. And it is through the generous permission of the musuem that the present publication is made possible.
